GavsEvans123 08/05/19 4:02:56 PM #1:	Hello everyone, and welcome back to Best of the Trope! Here are the rules. Each day, I will post a trope from TV Tropes, and each poster can name up to three examples of that trope. Whichever nomination gets the most mentions wins! Posters may also name as many Honourable Mentions as they like, but they are purely optional and will not count towards the running score. You may look at the TV Tropes page for that day's trope for examples, but you do not have to pick all your examples from the page. You can nominate whatever examples you like, as long as they qualify for the trope. Each trope will last around 24 hours before the next one goes up. In the event of a tie between 4 or more nominations, a tiebreaker poll will be run the next day to determine a winner. Posters may also nominate any tropes they wish to see come up during the series. This is optional, and you don't have to do it every day, or at all. Tropes will be randomly selected from the list each day, except for some occasions where I will pick a thematically appropriate trope that may or may not be on the list. Here's the list of previous tropes, so if you wish to nominate some tropes, check on here that it wasn't previously done. http://board8.wikia.com/wiki/Best_of_the_Trope Trope list: Torch the Franchise and Run Grand Finale <cite>GavsEvans123 posted [p:925662656] in Best of th...

GavsEvans123 08/05/19 4:05:14 PM #3:	Today's trope is Memetic Psychopath. Here is the link: https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/MemeticPsychopath Sometimes the internet hivemind will take a normally friendly character or a more mild antagonist, and depict them as an Ax-Crazy psychotic killer, usually Played for Laughs of the Black Comedy sort. This could be the result of stalker behaviour or creepy expressions, or a character's mental state exaggerated to horrible conclusions. TL,DR: Fans exaggerate a character as being a bloodthirsty psychopath as a joke. Nominations: Dolan Villager (Animal Crossing) Mr Popo (Dragon Ball Z Abridged) <cite>GavsEvans123 posted [p:925662762] in Best of th...
